PO process with multiple vendors

Hi All,
Finished product-
BOM Header-A0001
Components---A1, A2, A3, A4.
Vendor A will supply A4 (sheet-10ft) material to Vendor B.
Vendor B will use the 8ft of A4 material and 2ft scrap and will sent to Vendor C.
Vendor C will use the components A1, A2, A3, and A4 (8ft). and make the finished Product A0001 and will sent to plant.
How to map the above process in SAP.
Thanks
chindam

I think you can map this scenario in the multiple vendors 3 rd party subcontracting process.
I will try to put some light on ur issue .........hope this will help u in some extend..
1) Create a PO to 1st vendor.
2. Maintain the required entries.
3. Go to delivery address tab tick SC Vendor
4. Maintain 2nd vendor here.
It means that after finishing first operation 1st vendor sends a matl. to 2nd vendor.
If u post migo for 1st PO(i.e. for 1st PO vendor) system says that matl is with 2nd vendor.
So u need not to send the matl to 2nd vendor.
Similarly, do it for other vendors also.
normaly in sucontracting process,for calculating the SCRAP ,,we should maintain this in NEGATIVE quantity in BOM.so that at the time of GR,,it wont affects,the calclation of payment to be given to vendor.
Here important thing is U have to send a PO to respective vendors for respective operations.
For the last vendor who gives u the finished product dont tick SC vendor to him. Maintain your company delivery address.

SAP system will be recieving a file in the following format from a thrid party tool--->
One Journal Entry :-
Company Code   Cost Center   GLAccount   Assignment   Text   Debit Amount    Credit Amount
   0004                   62100           60100            TEA125       Cattty     45
   0004                   62100           00103            TEA125       Catty       210
   0004                   82131           60100            TEA131       ADAM    34
   0004                   82131           60103            TEA131      ADAM     670

Will it be possible to post the entries like :-
    employees are considered as vendors : so vendor account crediting and GL Account debbiting ?
Like
Posting key 31 (vendor)    9122345       Catty       45
                   40 (Debit Entry)60100         Catty       200
or
Shall we infer it as multiple vendor postings in one accounting Document ?
Could anybody please give some suggestions on the above file format breaking down to one Journal Entry Posting ?
Any information is helpful : since i have nevr checked file with multiple vendors at line item level or how shall we infer the debit side and the credit payable side as mentioned above
Thanks
Kylie

is there some problem at the sdn , even if i rate a thread as Stop watching and discard it doesnot get discarded ????
Thanks

Item master Item mapping with multiple vendors

Hi Experts,
I need your help, I have one item like 'TV' in item master and need to enter multiple prices make wise samsung,sony,lg like.
How can I maintain this in SAP B1 2005B.
One Item mapping with multiple vendors with price...
Thanks,

Dear Aarti,
I would recommend to have multiple items for the different brands you are selling.
For example, you can call the item code Samsung, Sony etc and all of these item can be added to an item group called TV.
Then you can assign a price to the items in the price lists.
Alternatevely, if you need to have one single item called TV and different prices according to the brand, create a number of price lists called Sony, Sumsung etc and then if you know which customers buy a particular brand you can connect the price list to the customer under
Business partner master data - Payment Terms - Price list.
Please, if these 2 options are not helpful let us know the exact scenario and business reason behind your request.
Kind Regards,

Problem initiating process with multiple operations using HTTP/SOAP

Hi,
I have defined a process which has multiple operations. My process starts with a pick activity containing onMessage branches for each possible operation. When I initiate this service using the BPEL console, I choose one of the operations and everything works fine.
However, when I initiate this process using an HTTP/SOAP web service call using JMeter, always the first branch is executed regardless of the message I send.
My operations are document/literal. Due to some restrictions, I cannot define a SOAPAction for the operations. Could this be the problem? Is there a workaround for this? If this is not the problem, what could be the cause?
I'm using version 10.1.2.1.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance..

hi i am using 10.1.3 and still i can not initiate a process with multiple operations. Is there anybody to tell if pick activity works fine and if there are some points to consider?
If there is a problem is there any solution to make a process with multiple operations?

How can I modify a Landed Costs with multiple vendors

Normally, you just open a new Landed Costs, select same vendor as the original, and choose Copy From > Landed Costs, select original and modify!.
With multiple vendors the "Copy from" lists just turns out empty.
I have searched similar cases but the newest post i found was from 2009 and was not resolved.
I'm using SAP B1 9.0

Hi,
Tested in 8.81 version PL10.
1. If there is no landed cost for both vendors, the list of land cost is empty. Make sure vendors that selected in landed cost should have landed cost
2. If you add multiple vendor, system will show landed cost document for second vendor not for first vendor.
Thanks & Regards,

Kanban - External procurement with multiple vendor

Hi Gurus,
We are working on implementation of Kanban for external procurement (Scheduling agreement) in my organisation. As per the business requirement, some of the components are supplied by more than one vendor. As per the standard process, Kanban supports automated processfor single vendor only & not multiple vendors
Has anybody come across this issue? Could you plese share your experiene & any possible workaround or solution to this isuue
Thanks
Kariya

Hi,
This is how KANBAN works. Since sourcing is automatic.
You could do a couple of things; first, have more than one control cycle, one for each vendor. Drawback is that you also need to have separate kanban containers for each cycle/vendor. But in the case where you have more that one supply area for a material this is not so bad.
Another way could be working with internal demand area, in such a way that Kanban creates a stock transfer reservation. Then you need to process the requirements with MRP, and issue orders to multiple vendors (maybe using quota arrangement).
To ilustrate the solution: your supply area is geting replenishment from the main warehouse, not directly from the vendor. These are two different storage location or plants...

PO Error in Process with Multiple account assignment

Hi ,
I am working with Extended Classsic scenario.
Problem is with PO with Multiple account assignement.
There is only one user who is getting problem with one particular account assignement "CCC" - Cost Center RP.. . When PO gets created with this particular AAC , it goes into "Error in process" only for one user.
In RZ20 it shows messsage as "Please enter quantity or percentage for account assignment" & "Distr. ind. and partial invoice ind. must be set f or multi acct. assgt.".
On other hand , other users are able to order the PO with the same AAC without any error.
What could be the reason behind this only for one user ?
Regards,
Sheetal

Hi ,
I have checked it intially and both are identical.
Initialy the problem was, user had entered 128 times AA line items ( added & deleted ) in the PO while in the SC it was having only 64.... Our system accepts line items till 99 , so i asked him to delete the items above 99 ..
So after that POs error has gone and it went for approval..
But after approval it again went into error in process

Subcontracting process to multiple vendors

Dear friends,
We have got the subcontracting process as below.
1) Material is given to subcontracting vendor for making finished product.This job consists of 5 operations.
2) After making 1 operation at first vendor ,for remaining operations,partly processed material is given to second vendor from outside vendor to vendor.
3) After 2 nd operation is completed,remaining 3,4,5 operations,material is given to 3rd subcontracting vendor.
Then material is recieved to our place.
Material is moved from vendor to vendor without coming to our location.At the end of the process only finished prioduct will come to our location.
How to handle this scenario if finished product is completed within 180 days
---How to handle this scenario if finished product is completed more than 180 days.
--One condition is that it is not possible to take GR every time to our location and issue to next vendor because materials handling is very difficult every time.
Please suggest.
regards,
Canand

Hi Anand,
1. Create a PO to 1st vendor.
2. Maintain the required entries.
3. Go to delivery address tab tick SC Vendor
4. Maintain 2nd vendor here.
It means that after finishing first operation 1st vendor sends a matl. to 2nd vendor.
If u post migo for 1st PO(i.e. for 1st PO vendor) system says that matl is with 2nd vendor.
So u need not to send the matl to 2nd vendor.
Similarly, do it for other vendors also.
Here important thing is U have to send a PO to respective vendors for respective operations.
For the last vendor who gives u the finished product dont tick SC vendor to him. Maintain ue company delivery address.
and "answer for ur 180 days"
Who ever with the material once the matl went from ur company premices, from that day ur 180 days starts.
If it comes within 180 days no tax to pay on that material, other wise u have to pay tax.
further u need any clarification, do reply
Reward if useful

Info records with multiple vendors

Hello all,
I have some info records defined for multiple vendors for subcontracting material numbers. How do I tell SAP to use a specific vendor by default when it creates the Purchase Requisition?
Thanks in advance for information.

Hi,
If you have maintained source list(ME01) and "info record"(ME11) for the desired vendor and material combination and MRP indicator as 1 . It will default as "fixed vendor" in PR when you run MRP. Of course when you copy PR into PO, it is going to copy the same.
if you want to create Subcontract PR ...you have to use special procurement key 30 for that material.
Hope it helps you.

Forgot-Your-Password process with multiple realms

We’re running OAS 10.2.0.2 and we’re considering adding a second identity management realm in order to have, among other things, a different set of password reset validation fields for one group of portal users versus another group.
With two realms in place and OID/SSO configured so that all users from both realms use a common login mechanism, and, presumably, one forgot-your-password mechanism, will the password rest validation fields that are enforced for a given user automatically be based on the realm of which they are a member?
More specifically, will all users from both realms be able to use one common URL to access the OIDDAS forgot-your-password wizard? If so, I’m assuming that when the user enters their username in that wizard, they are then searched against their realm and the policies of that realm then come into play for the rest of the wizard, right?
In other words, with two realms, is this scenario possible without any custom programming:
We have a link to the OIDDAS forgot-your-password link on our existing portal login.jsp page. User A clicks that link and is taken to the OIDDAS forgot-your-password wizard. First he is asked for his username, which he supplies. Then, to verify his identity, he is asked for his Social Security Number, which he supplies, after which he is able to set a new password.
User B, who is in a different realm, clicks the same forgot-your-password link on our login page. After supplying his username, he is asked for his employee I.D. number, which has been configured as the password reset validator in his realm. After supplying that number, he is able to change his password.
--Steve Huntress

Hi Steve!
AFAIK each OID realm has its own set of policies.
This would mean that your setup should work. I guess the only difficult thing would be that a user must somehow be uniquely identifiable. When you login into OID with multiple realms you need to supply the realm - or have a unique ID (eg email address) and OID must be setup to search from the top.
In order to get to the right forget your pwd wizard you need the realm.

Single Weblogic Process with multiple databases

Hi,
Presently we are working with two seperate weblogic processes with for two different
database schemes. The weblogic properties are defined differently in two weblogic.properties
files.
Is there a way to start weblogic in a single process so that it will work with
two different DB schemes at runtime?
Thanks,
Danny.

You have to use XA Driver which supports Distributed Transactions. This is
supported from 6.0.
Weblogic provides Type2 XA driver for Orcale and Oracle's Thin Driver
Version 817 supports
XA operations.
Go through these doc's for more info:

Invoice Verification process with multiple payments

Please advise us on the Invoice Verification process in case of multiple payments required for single Quantity Purchase Order Lines. [ i.e. If the quantity of Purchase is 1 and we need to process multiple invoices involving partial amount of the PO value, we end up in decimal errors in many cases. ]
For e.g. we had a case were the Total PO amount was 7638, against quantity 1. A partial invoice was raised for amount 7545. We were unable to determine the exact quantity in the invoice document to derive the said amount. This was due to the limitation in the quantity field which is only supporting 3 decimals. Subsequent to this, we need to round off and also this caused problems in the next payment lot. The issue becomes more complicated when there is header discount , freight etc. specified in the PO Header Conditions.
This resulted in the discrepancy between Goods Receipt and Invoice Receipt Amounts for such POs.
Please throw us some light to tackle this issue as per the best practices available in SAP.
Also in this relation, Is it possible to enforce Quantity Tolerance in PO.

HI,
What you can do to over come such problem, is Put the Value Figure in Quantity field & Quantity in Net price field,
As the Qty is 1, The total Amount paid to vendor will be same & no Need of calculating decimal.
While making GRN, Put the actual Invoice value as qty.
Hope this serves the purpose.

BPEL Process with multiple file types using one FTP adapter is not working

i created a bpel process which will fetch the files from remote location using FTP adapter.
Now the process works for only one format or file type like *.xls.
How can i use more than one file format in one FTP adapter.
OR
is there any other way to do it.
file type assignation is 5th step in FTP adapter configuration.
i have tried *.xls,*.csv and *.xls;*.csv and *.xls:*.csv by seperating with comman, colon, space... still not working.
i read the documentation *.* will not work.. for one file format it's working fine.
looking forward for reply as soon as possible.

Are you positive that it is not working? I'm not sure how you can use one FTP adapter for multiple file types unless the underlying data is exactly the same format or you are processing it as opaque data. Sometimes when a FTP adapter chokes on a file with a bad structure it doesn't create a BPEL instance, it simply moves the bad file to a separate folder.
So I assume you are using opaque as the data type instead of using an XSD element?
That said, I don't think you can put two separate file types in the filter. Is it possible for you to do something like: CommonFileName*.* or do you have similar files with other extensions?
I know the above probably isn't of much help, but I had so many problems with the FTP adapter and its lack of features that I am writing my own. Unfortunately that is a large undertaking and there isn't any good documentation of JCA resource adapter / BPEL PM integration.

Page Processing with multiple tables

Hello to all sql experts!
I have been successful in inserting a row into a table and creating the PK using Page Processing. The parent table is called Facility.
I used the following sql to insert a row into the table and now need to add data to the child tables.
Parent table==>
INSERT INTO FACILITY(fac_pk, fac_type, fac_name, street1, city, state, zip, state_or_tribe, tribe_yn)
VALUES (FAC_SEQ.nextval,
NVL(:P211_FAC_TYPE, 'N'),
NVL(:P211_FAC_NAME,'No Data'),
NVL(:P211_STREET1,'No Data'),
NVL(:P211_CITY, 'No Data'),
NVL(:P211_STATE,'CA'),
NVL(:P211_ZIP,'00000'),
NVL(:P211_STATE_OR_TRIBE,'CA'),
NVL(:P211_TRIBE_YN,'N'));
Child table == >
INSERT INTO CONTACT(cnt_pk, fullname, street1, city, state, zip, phone, title)
VALUES (CNT_SEQ.nextval,
NVL(:P36_FULLNAME, 'No Data'),
NVL(:P36_STREET1,'No Data'),
NVL(:P36_CITY, 'No Data'),
NVL(:P36_STATE,'CA'),
NVL(:P36_ZIP,'00000'),
NVL(:P36_PHONE,'555-1212'),
NVL(:P36_TITLE,'No Data'));
My Questions:
1. How do I reference the Facility PK that was already created?
2. If I have several child tables where I want to insert a row, is the sql the same as above?
I did run the separate Insert sql for Contact table, but all it did was create a new row, but no link to the facility record.
Thanks for looking at this. I am new to sql and want to use the PL/SQL to process the inserts into the tables.
